Usually I'm hauling a kid to some activity, but on the rare occasion I actually get to be home right after work, I usually head straight to the shit mug. I don't always have to shit, but the loud bathroom fan and having a legit excuse to lock the door create a few minutes of solitude.
What do you typically do when you get home/close the laptop after a day of work?

Same… but shit mug is my pet name for OP’s mom. She loves it hot and steamy right on the chest.
i take 15-20 minutes and just lay in complete silence.
No phone, tv, radio, podcast, music. Just unplugging in silence

Jump on the treadmill for 40 minutes, then help the wife (no pics) finish supper
Before we saved the daylight I would go outside and play with the dog, maybe lawn work, stop and smell the roses. Now it’s doomscrolling the wheel of seasonal depression.
Make dinner or head to a kids activity. Then kids bath/bed. It's a sprint until bedtime.
Hop in my golf cart and go to the club. Will play, practice or go to the 19th hole.
Well put. I take the dog a good long walk after work. It's not too bad yet with the christmas lights in the neighborhood to entertain us and more importantly it's not super f'n cold. But come Jan/Feb...
When I work - I usually come home and say to myself "phuck that place."
Then I work out and help with dinner.

please tell me this isnt real.
I cant remember the last time i watched cable news. I think it was well before i gave up paying for a live tv package.
It's real. I'm interested in current events.
I watch CNN, MSNBC and Fox News most days.
same here OP, it's usually immediately getting a kid to soccer or basketball practice
the only night of week I can usually just end work and chill is Friday

Eat dinner. If it’s nice outside I will ride bike a second time ( I always ride before work ). Take dog for a walk, shower.
Watch Hallmark with my wife for a while (actually I flip through YouTube during this, almost nothing appeals to me on TV) and then go to bed.
When the kids were home it was non stop sports/dance every single night but Wednesdays. I miss that stuff but it’s nice to have a slower pace also.

Can be interested in current events while not watching corporate cable news and their slant.
Ill turn on a half hour chunk of local news while i am eating dinner, spend some time reading articles through various outlets that intrigue me on the apple news app.

I'm in a 4 month stretch where I get home around 10:00 every night so I basically plop down in bed on my phone until I pass out. Up by 7:00.
Smart that way you get all sides of corporate interests.
I thank my employer for sharing money with me. Thanks for sharing this.
A good brisk half hour walk with the dog is the first order of business unless it’s subzero outside then it’s usually 10 minutes or less.
Then dinner prep, wash dishes, take a puff or three and unwind with the no pic wifey.

No problem, it's an old (and not great quality) photo so she's a bit more gray around the face area now, but she's an awesome pup. Best dog I've ever owned.
